It's also important to recognize that tech oligarchs won't let this die. It's too important to them. This is part of the boss fight right here. They will take everything from us to coerce us into making LLMs profitable, to deskilling our labor and selling (skewed) human knowledge back to us at a premium. They will take away every benefit the state has, kill as many people as it takes to funnel every penny of government subsidy into this. They will burn every drop of subsidized oil. Those ICE camps are gonna be used for something. If it takes right wing death squads, they'll do it.
They will kill every last one of us to realize total domination. We have to be ready for that, and prepare accordingly. As many lives as have been taken by people with similar ideologies, those ideologies have always lost. If we know what's coming and prepare for it then they will lose faster, and at a lower cost.

If you think we have an E-Waste problem now, wait until these AI companies crash and burn and orphan all their data centers.

Scores of drones ⁠targeted Moscow overnight, hitting the Russian capital’s oil refinery for the second time this week, Reuters reported.
“We don’t ⁠want this war, we never did, and everyone knows it, and our partners ‌know it,”

There is a conversation to be had here about "comprehensibility." Big tech understands money. Huge capitalist organizations have spent years adapting to markets that dominate everything. They have learned how to ruthlessly destroy competition. They have learned how to take the massive amounts of money they can siphon from society and use it to manipulate political systems. They bent the world to their will, until there was nothing to stop them from destroying it.
But here we are, our lives now threatened by their continued existence. At a certain point, it doesn't matter how much money they can pay you if your house will burn down, your water will dry up, your food won't grow, and your children will cook. At a certain point, free isn't cheap enough to make their continued extraction of our data worth it.
At a certain point we need to do things that are *incomprehensible* to those still operating within capitalism and the captured political systems.

"But in winter for heating we don't have solar and gas is so efficient!!1!"
My guy, if you'd burn the gas in a power plant instead and make electricity out of it and then have people use heat pumps to heat you'd need overall way less gas for the same amount of heating (gas = 80-95% efficiency, heat pump = 300-500% efficiency).

If the world wasn't so full of greedy, idiotic, assholes we could have ultra high speed zero-emission electric trains connecting North America and Asia and we wouldn't need to pollute the skies or the seas.

We probably burn more fuel in a day with all the air traffic in the world than it would take to build the entire railway from Prince George or Edmonton through Fairbanks, across the Bering Sea/Land Bridge and on to Yakutsk, Moscow, and Beijing.
It's such a shame, you know?
